One day a young man came in asking for prayer, but wouldn’t
share anything specific. As we closed our eyes and prayed over him, I clearly
saw a picture in my head of a boy sitting at a kitchen table and an older man
standing over him and they were yelling at each other.
As a “rookie” with Healing prayer, I wasn’t sure what to do,
but shared aloud what I saw. The young man burst into tears and said that the
man was his father and that they had been in their kitchen just this morning
and had a nasty argument. From then, the leader of the prayer team gently
proceeded to lead the prayer into the specific situation. The sense of peace
that came over the young man and his gratitude as he left the session
re-confirmed for me how much God loves us and wants us to know and experience
His peace ... and that He will use all available instruments to do that.
I didn’t think anything was
unusual about my experience as there seemed to be many “signs and wonders”
going on with all the prayer groups and Healing sessions at Duns Scotus. It was
a bit of a “spiritual oasis” during the 80’s. I know of others that had similar
experiences to mine. It truly was a great feeling to know you are being used by
the Holy Spirit in some way.
